I reread how Portent works in 5e and I've adjusted their namesakes here. Main change is adding the Social keyword and not allowing you to spam them. Greater Portent slightly buffed for casters who Fetter their spells as the amount of uses you get is added to the 2 you already get from Portent.
EDIT: Although Greater Portent is a level 5 spell, maybe I should revert it to its more spammable form?
Okay, swapping entire rolls is strong, but I still want to give Portent to Level 2 so I found a compromise by swapping individual dice.
